Xiang Shan led the Norwich coach and Lu Xuanyu to the underground level.
After exiting the stairwell, there is a corridor. On the left side of the corridor is a transparent glass curtain wall, just like the one commonly seen in zoos.
However, there are no animals on the other side of the glass wall.
Those are several pairs of sparring robots.
These robots are fighting each other. They flexibly use dodges and butterfly steps, and use various combination punches to move back and forth in this small space.
Coach Norwich was very surprised: "These...are all your AIs trained like this?"
Xiang Shan shook his head: "Not entirely. In fact, many AIs are not trained this way."
Norwich pointed to the robots: "Then what are they doing?"
"This is for display." Xiang Shan said in a matter-of-fact tone.
Anyway, purely in terms of cost, a sparring robot only costs tens of thousands of dollars. Any car in the auto show area is worth more than this thing.
"On the other hand, this is also used for calibration." Xiang Shan raised his right hand and snapped his fingers: "The AI's exclusive training ground is further down."
With this snap of fingers, the field beneath the robots changed.
Only then did Norwich and Lu Xuanyu notice that the ground under the feet of these robots was transparent, and there was a layer of movable plates under the transparent ground. After this layer of movable metal plates was retracted, the space below was exposed.
came out.
"This is the venue for AI training." Xiangshan said calmly: "The supercomputer 'Zhenwu 1' is mainly responsible for the research tasks of prosthetic motion control and motion."
It was a huge array, with countless electronic devices criss-crossing like a maze of Bagua, forming a strange beauty.
"There are hundreds of Alis and Tysons in endless fights, dozens of Floyd Mayweather Jr., dozens of Wladimir Klitschkos, dozens of Iraq
Wander Holyfield, and then there are a dozen Sevier Chavez, Riddick Bowe, Buakaw, Xiao Shaman, a little bit of Dasan Beida - let me state in advance that the above number does not represent my understanding of these
The ranking of martial artists. This quantitative difference is partly due to the order of authorization. Mr. Ali and Mr. Tyson have a great first-mover advantage in this Shura field-the algorithm of survival of the fittest is used in cruel iterations."
"Of course, the most popular ones are whiteboard AI. These AIs learn directly from actual combat."
Lu Xuanyu swallowed his saliva. From the outside, this computer was running quietly. It was impossible to tell that there was an endless hell composed of a data warrior inside.
It looks too much like some kind of post-modern landscape, and occasionally you can see some wires like water plants... like water plants...
Lu Xuanyu pointed below: "Mr. Xiang, is this thing just soaked in water?"
"This is a non-toxic insulating liquid, usually used as a cleaner for precision electronic equipment." Xiang Shan said: "Look, if I turn on the light, will the visual effect be better?"
Xiangshan said and snapped his fingers, countless blue lights lit up, and the entire device showed a peaceful beauty.
"Why is this happening?"
"On the one hand, it looks better." Xiang Shan explained: "And as a heat dissipation agent, it is far better than air, and you don't have to worry about dust - ah, although water is a better heat dissipation agent, water cannot directly act on electronics.
It’s on the equipment.”
"Furthermore, this cooling agent is relatively stable, and it is much less difficult to calculate the flow direction. Although the equipment on that side is not neatly arranged, they are actually precisely designed to ensure that the coolant circulates within a range.
The endless flow.”
Lu Xuanyu scratched his head: "But in this case, maintenance will become difficult, right?"
Since he has to work with machinery for his whole life, Lu Xuanyu still gained some knowledge about mechanical maintenance and had some idea of some things.
"So it's a display." Xiang Shan said: "And this is a cooperative project of NASA. They came up with a plan to cheat money, saying that they would build a city-scale computer on the moons of Jupiter with the help of the natural ultra-low temperature oceans of the moons of Jupiter.
, and also said that at this stage, we need to do a few tests on the earth. Anyway, we need to build a supercomputer. This thing has gimmicks, technical assistance, and even subsidies. All in all, it is just a waste of supercomputing."
Lu Xuanyu was shocked: "So sci-fi?"
The Norwich coach scratched his head: "Is taxpayers' money spent on this?"
"Basic humanization and prostheticization will help mankind overcome the cosmic environment. Maybe the next wave of space craze is coming. Maybe after a hundred years there will really be a need to build such a thing?" Xiang Shan nodded,
"Anyway, NASA can convince the higher-ups that they have the ability. And this thing just meets my needs."
Xiangshan pointed straight ahead.
A glass door stands at the end of the corridor, which looks like a rest area.
Xiangshan opened the door with a gesture, and a scalding hot air spurted out.
"This is the final result."
"There is absolutely no heating equipment here. All heat sources come from the waste heat of the supercomputer below."
Lu Xuanyu looked confused.
Is the heating wire too expensive or the heating lamp too expensive?
Why do you need an entire supercomputer to provide heat?
Is there any point in all this?
Xiang Shan put on the cooling equipment at the door, put it on and walked in. Coach Norwich followed suit. Lu Xuanyu took off his down jacket.
Pointing to the break room floor at the tip of the mountain: "That coolant will release heat here and then go back to the supercomputer."
"Those countless AIs are fighting, and countless information is being erased and written. According to the second law of thermodynamics, every writing and erasing of information will generate waste heat. As long as the design is clever enough, this waste heat can be reduced to very low
The cost can be utilized.”
Lu Xuanyu said: "But...why?"
Xiang Shan pointed at Lu Xuanyu: "This is the answer to Coach Norwich's previous question about 'indoor temperature during training'! Lao Lu, as long as you exercise with all your strength, the electronic part of your prosthetic arm will operate under high load.
The waste heat generated can maintain your body temperature."
With that said, Xiangshan started the projection again: "Remember? The flow direction of several of your veins has been changed. The low-temperature blood flowing back from the vicinity of your skin will be in these blood vessels induced by semi-artificial and semi-signaling molecules.
, flows to the power supply and processor part of your lower body, where it is heated to about fifty degrees, and then flows into the main vein and back to your heart."
"If you are more prosthetic, the waste heat from the heart pump and artificial lung can ensure that you will not freeze to death."
